Thistle Celtic Kilt Pin with Jewel

The Kilt Pin became fashionable in the 1800s and has continued to this day, usually worn on all kilts or kilted skirts. Highlanders elaborated the metal parts of their wearing apparel either by the use of precious metal or by introducing Cairngorm stones, polished pebbles, or jewels; and this practice later extended to kilt pins.
